'A co-opted member can take part in each activity of the MC'

Q. Can the managing committee (MC) co-opt a member after completing four years of its tenure, just one year before the expiry of its term? If not, what will be the status of such co-opted member(s)? Will the appointment of such co-opted MC member(s) be considered null and void? Will they be part of or exempt from various decisions taken by the MC? I understand that a member can only be co-opted within the first 2.5 years of the MC's tenure. Please advise.
